its about trajectories and tendencies

AOC racializing climate change

The Geology of Morals is the most accessible and covering a broad range on the morality topic. Though Anti Christi might be a better critique of Christianity.

SLAVE MORALITY

to Nietzsche, you can certainly have Chad Christians, but if they're Chad, they're not really good Christians

The way Eastern Europeans are Chad Christians. They don't take it seriously. It's just a social club.

you can have smaller moral systems and principles within broader contexts and trends

I really don't respect many philosophers after the Enlightenment, including Nietzsche, sorry.

its not that master morality HAS to be opposed to christianity

but it tends to end up like that

"the weak shall inherit the earth"

Christianity should be like Santa Clause where people grow out of it at a certain age.

the "meek"

yeah it has that fundamental outlook

egalitarian

anti-aristocratic

universalizing

Nietzsche is far wiser than most pre-enlightenment philosophers

if you dont appreciate him its your loss

I think the meek will actually inhert the earth though. I think it is more of a prediction

You should actually read his books

I value him way more than any medieval philosopher

tbh you'd have to go back to the ancients to find someone as interesting

imo

Nah, 90% of the stuff after the Enlightenment is gay.

Universalism is a good way to get everyone under the same umbrella and create an empire though.

I am a reactionary.

we aren't talking about postenlightenment thought vs preenlightenment thought lol, we're just talking about one guy

Heraclitus or nothing

I do not like him. I am grouping him in the post-enlightenment. @Nerthulas

@Trommm yeah that's the thing is that chadness (master morality) *can* surface anywhere, and because of its natural power, it can dominate power structures that are fundamentally more 'slavish'

btw Nietzsche called Jesus himself a free spirit

Bureaucracy is slavish

Mostly slaves in it

master morality is just pure evolutionary morality... its the morality that successful intelligent beings would naturally evolve

yep

The master mentality is a risk taker

Because everything about master morality rewards strength

High agency
